“If you are not willing to look stupid, nothing great is ever going to happen to you.” - Dr. Gregory House, "House"

“I never look back, Darling. It distracts from the now.” -Edna Mode, "The Incredibles"


“It’s impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all — in which case, you fail by default.” - J.K. Rowling

“You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.” - Eames, "Inception"
